Peterborough is located just northeast of Toronto, and its surrounding areas are made up of Lindsay, Port Perry, Uxbridge, Sunderland, Keswick, Sutton, Jackson's Point, and Pefferlaw. It is a thriving city that is growing rapidly. Peterborough was the first town in Canada to use electric streetlights. As a result of this, it earned the nickname "electric city". Peterborough now is often called "cottage country" because it is known as the Kawarthas gateway.

The city of Peterborough has long been known for its manufacturing capabilities. The prominent industries in this area are food processing, and it is known for its automotive supplies and electronic industry. Life Sciences and biotechnology play a big role in the economy here along with aerospace.

Prominent organizations are the Peterborough Regional Health Centre, Trent University and the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources. The city is also well known for its large shopping portals which include three major shopping centres which are Peterborough Square, Portage Place and Landsdowne Place.

There are many wonderful attractions that often draw the interest of visitors to the region which includes the Peterborough Museum & Archives, Trent-Severn Waterway and the city is recognized as having one of the largest skate parks in Ontario.

Peterborough Yoga Festival

The area is a mix of many ethnic groups and families of all sizes. Many people have moved to Peterborough because of the easy commuting distance to Toronto for work. Then Peterborough is also known to be a retirement community, so there are all walks of life to be found here.

The homes range from being ultra modern and new, to farming communities to heritage homes. The area is well known to have its fair share of bad weather including severe flooding in 2004. The winters can be harsh in regards to snow and cold, while the summers are known sometimes to be real scorchers.
